The way you are

When I first knew you

in our younger days.

I was taken by your smile

the jewel within your face.

A face which was so beautiful

and still is now today.

Just like the beautiful person you are

in all you do and say.

You have always been so easy to love

whether from near or far.

That’s not so hard to understand

it’s just the way you are.

And long ago I realised

all I ever wanted to do.

Was just to be in love with you

and for you to love me too.

Short and sweet one here...I liked it and how have you been doing lately? I must check out your poems, been a while. This is just a thought to look at in this write, try to take out some ands and see how it flows, I found words I used alot of like the and and could be omitted and still the meaning and flow was there.I know you did not ask for any feedback on this one so I took liberty and offered you just to try it if you like. Miss reading you and hope all is well. Aspire to higher Timbo, you got it in you..:) Love,Mona TIME well spent is TIME well lived
